Sterol 117, 30 Capsules

Sterol 117 (Celt Naturals) from BioGenesis contains plant sterols with antioxidants and an essential fatty acid complex. Our modern diet rarely provides the necessary plant sterols we may need.

It is derived from non-genetically modified soy, pine park, fruit extracts, oil producing seeds and essential fatty acids extracted from North Sea fish.* Sterol 117 may support the dietary needs associated with:

• Many seasonal allergy symptoms*
• Symptoms of joint pain and stiffness*
• T-cell proliferation*
• A balanced immune system and T 1/T2 helper cell ratio, associated with auto immune conditions and chronic viral infections*
• The maintenance of healthy cholesterol levels*
• Peak urinary flow and reduction of residual volume*

Research by Karl Pegel (1), University of Natal Republic of South Africa, reports that a good quality diet should provide 200 to 300 mg of plant sterols per day. However, analysis of the modern diet shows that this healthy and necessary amount of plant sterols is not being provided.

In addition, our high fat diets tend to reduce the absorption of these beneficial plant constituents. Based on the far reaching benefits of plant sterols, scientists have concluded that supplementation is necessary to achieve the recommended daily intake.
